Flopped Boats are Cursed in PokerNews Cup
Gloria Vallejo opened to 1,100 from middle position and was called by Harrison Ashdown from the big blind.
The A♥4♣4♥ flop checked through to the 8♣ turn. Ashdown bet 1,400 and was called.
Sparks then began to ignite on the 9♣ river. Ashdown checked and Vallejo fired out 3,500. Ashdown made it 20,000 and then faced a jam for 32,900.
Ashdown went deep into the tank, listing the hands that beat him as well as the hands that he beat.
He began counting out his stack and called.
Vallejo tabled 9♥9♠ for a rivered full house of nines full of fours. Ashdown looked sickened as he had the A♦4♦ for fours full of aces, and sent his hand into the muck.
The hand is similar to a pot played between Spencer Hudson and Oliver Bunting yesterday. Hudson's flopped jacks full of kings against Bunting's aces. However, a third king on the river gave Bunting a superior full house.
